Well done! Is that moonlight on the cliff in the lower right foreground?

Very nice, the long exposure produce a dynamic sky. I like both versions, the B&W is classical but I also like the blue and red tones of the color version.

Well done

Very very nice.  It could be my imagination but it seems your work has taken a step up recently. Not that it was bad before, but I'm really enjoying your latest postings.

Thanks James for your kind words!
Like music, "Practice makes perfect" is probably a good term.

I really like the sky, Pramote. Brave shot -- 512 s!

The view is certainly too familiar, but these shots have a terrific mood that transcends the cliche.
I can't choose between the color and the B&W. Both are quite fine.

Really love the sky of the color version.

But prefer foreground lighting of the B/W  ;) ;) ;)

I like both.

So do I, but I definitely prefer the drama of the B&W.

Scott, Jeremy, Eric, Rajan, Isaac, Thierry and Fine Art for your kind words!
To me, long exposure and Black & White are so good together.
